I think that might be because it's written in autohotkey which is used a lot to make these botting tools/cheats, so the anti-cheat detected the ahk binary that's running micmute and got triggered by it.
TBH I don't know how you could avoid it, but I'm curious which game were you playing when it was detected? because I've been using this and other AHK stuff with a lot of games that use EAC like fortnite and apex legends and I've never had any issues.
Also what did the anti-cheat say exactly when it was triggered?
UPDATE:
OK so there seems to be a way to disguise that it's autohotkey that's running, using this BinMod.ahk to modify some strings in the compiled exe.
I'm not sure if it makes any difference though because I can't get EAC to detect the original exe on my PC, but you can test it and see for yourself: download
That works perfectly! Did you recompile the source code?
Just to know: the game is Albion Online. It works like a charm with the original .exe
, but when I enter a new zone, the game kicks me and present an alert from the anti-cheat.
Too early... :/ It disconnect me randomly now, not just when I travel between maps.
I tested the game and it does disconnect me if I'm running this or any other AHK script, and sadly I don't know if I can do anything about it, they seem to have blacklisted anything written in autohotkey example, another example, which is weird because it only happens with this game, I tested 3 other EAC games and they all work fine.
I will revert the commits that I made to use BinMod and ScriptGuard since they made no difference and they broke the github action.
And I will add this issue to the README.
Thanks for the support. I am using Power Toys v36 (wich has global mic mute shortcut written in C# maybe) and Albion Online's Easy Anti-Cheat is not disconnecting me now. But they are showing an persistent floating toast on primary monitor when mic is muted. By the way, I've mentioned this project as an example of how to keep the visual feedback on system tray on a issue there.
Power Toys v36 is not stable yet, so maybe they implement something as sophisticated as your solution.
Why is this treated as a botting tool by Easy Anti-Cheat? Can I do something to avoid it?
